Level 3

At the entrance to Goth, a blue force-field flashes across the screen.

Treguard: Something must be seriously worrying Lord Fear. Unless I'm mistaken, that is a barrier of anti-magic. It looks as though he's set it up to keep out rival sorcerers.

Barry has no magic, so can pass through unscathed.

In another corridor of Goth, where three bottles are found on a barrel. These are labelled 'Fast backwards', 'Homer', and 'Freezer'. The scroll reads: "Rock and roll, hot and slow".

The team chooses 'Fast backwards' and 'Freezer'.

At the Sewers of Goth, they find a boat and a spyglass.

Spyglass: A troll stands towering over Lord Fear and Lissard.

Lord Fear: "In the kingdom of the trolls, the one IQ troll is king. This is him - Bulstrode. He's got six words, some of them pronouns, and he can count up to five."

Fear is wondering how to shrink it enough to transport it to Knightmare Castle and destroy Treguard's antechamber.

Greystagg appears, still raging at the machinations of Lord Fear. When Barry agrees that he must be stopped, she says he may summon her.

Greystagg then rows Barry across the sewers. She deflects a question about how to attack a troll, but offers a spell, VISOR.

They use the VISOR spell immediately on the Play Your Cards Right puzzle. A goblin emerges on the ledge behind Barry.

Barry touches the correct card, sending the goblin plummeting to its doom!

The team progress with ease until the final choice between clubs or Joker. Barry says the Joker is referred to as a 'wild card'. Treguard seems to agree, and it gets them through.

The Brollachan appears, seeking more knowledge. It asks what a vertical tunnel is called and why it must build one from Goth to Knightmare Castle.

The plot thickens...

Treguard then warns that Barry's energy levels are critical and that he only has seconds. The team only just get Barry beneath dripping water in the corner of the room before the life-force skeleton collapses.
